About this Event
Black Dress Talks: Accessories
Join us for the eighth event in our ongoing series, “Black Dress Talks,” where we spotlight the invaluable contributions of Black men and women in the fashion industry. Through compelling stories, we delve into the creativity, perseverance, obstacles, and triumphs that define their journeys.
Black Dress Talks: Accesories is a dynamic and engaging conversation featuring Jacqueline Lamont, Rodney Patterson, Natasha Norie Standard, and Verlaine-Diane Soobroydoo, and Sean William, exploring artistry, entrepreneurship, cultural influence, and the evolving landscape of contemporary accesories design. Centering the voices of innovative Black creatives, the discussion will delve into creative process, brand building, and industry access, while examining the power of accesories as both personal expression and social statement.
This event is made possible by the generous support of the Jane B. Nord Professor of Fashion Design Endowment, the Pratt Fashion Department, School of Design, the Black Alumni of Pratt, the Pratt Engagement, Culture and Community, and the Pratt Institute Academic Senate.
This event is open to the public and will be recorded.
